Mistral Large 3

Mistral Large 3 lists base rates of $0.50 per million input tokens and $1.50 per million output tokens. Estimate both input and output token volume and any additional charges for your workload. Mistral first-party API $0.50/$1.50 per MTok; cached input $0.05. The 675B-total / 41B-active multimodal checkpoint declares Apache 2.0. Regional hosting is endpoint-specific. These are the default Standard USD values in the retained pricing view. Batch/Priority and regional controls are offered, but their exact tariffs and eligibility are not established by that view; do not assume a universal discount or residence guarantee.

Mistral Large 3 accepts about 262K tokens of context. That only matters if you routinely send very long documents, large codebases, or multi-turn histories that approach that limit.

Mistral Large 3 is a frontier tier from Mistral. It suits open-weight deployments, multimodal eu-hosted inference, balanced frontier work. The publisher describes Large 3 as not a dedicated reasoning model and documents vision limitations. It advertises FP8 deployment on a B200/H200 node or a separate NVFP4 checkpoint on H100/A100 nodes; this is not a guarantee for every serving setup. A separate hard output cap is not verified. Confirm regional residency on the actual endpoint.

Mistral Large 3 publishes open weights, but self-hosting depends on the licence, hardware footprint, quantisation quality, and serving stack. A hosted API is often cheaper until you have measured throughput and concurrency on your own hardware.
